New Delhi, March 5 Women from different walks of life have started sending in their entries for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday on his Twitter account.
Modi's tweet referred to the response to his call, earlier this week, for women to take over his social media accounts for a day on Women's Day.
"Inspiring women entrepreneurs. 'Nari Shakti' securing India. Women excelling in sports and leadership. Women farmers showing the way. Been getting many motivating stories on exceptional women achievers," Modi tweeted.
"Do keep sharing more such life journeys!" he added.
Earlier, late on Monday evening, Modi created a sense of suspense after he tweeted: "This Sunday, thinking of giving up my social media accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram & YouTube. Will keep you all posted."
He has 52.3 million followers on Twitter alone.
Soon after his post, "No Sir" started to trend on top, urging him to reconsider his decision.
On Tuesday, Prime Minister Modi cleared the air when he tweeted that on this Women's Day (March 8), he will give away all his social media accounts to "inspiring" women, for a day.
His tweet said, "This Women's Day, I will give away my social media accounts to women whose life & work inspire us. This will help them ignite motivation in millions."
Urging all women to share their stories so they can take control of his social media accounts for a day, he added, "Are you such a woman or do you know such inspiring women? Share such stories using #SheInspiresUs."
So, how do you tell the Prime Minister your story, if you think you are the one? You can tweet or post it on his Facebook or Instagram timeline. One can also shoot a short video and post it on YouTube using the hashtag.
Every Women's Day, Modi follows a few women on Twitter. But this year, he went a step further and announced this move.
